Concrete Forms Of Intellectual Property, Robert J. Fay Jan 1960

Concrete Forms Of Intellectual Property, Robert J. Fay

Cleveland State Law Review

The field of intellectual property as treated in this paper encompasses mental products of industrial importance: inventions or discoveries, literary or artistic works, trade secrets,and distinguishing trademarks or trade names used in commerce. Each of these is characterized by mental activity followed by embodiment in some concrete form. Protection in a measure for the originator is found both in the statutes and in common law.


Restrictions On Use Of Intellectual Property Rights, Harold S. Meyer Jan 1960

Restrictions On Use Of Intellectual Property Rights, Harold S. Meyer

Cleveland State Law Review

Intellectual property rights are generally considered to include patents, copyrights, and ownership of unpublished technical data or "know-how," and sometimes trademarks. In spite of the basic differences in character between trademarkmrights and the others, all these rights are often dealt with as a group, particularly in Europe, where they are known collectively as industrial property rights.


Problems In Joint Ownership Of Patents, Harrington A. Lackey Jun 1958

Problems In Joint Ownership Of Patents, Harrington A. Lackey

Vanderbilt Law Review

In that area of the law where rights in the products of mental conception are created, transferred and litigated, the general practitioner is often bewildered by the challenge to identify such rights with legal principles familiar to him.

Moreover, patents are identified as property, and under the 1952 Patent Act, they have been further classified as personal property. Here the confusion begins.

Judgments - Propriety Of Finding That A Nonparty Conducted The Defense, David N. Mills Dec 1941

Judgments - Propriety Of Finding That A Nonparty Conducted The Defense, David N. Mills

Michigan Law Review

A patent infringement suit against a distributor was dismissed on the ground that plaintiff's patents were invalid. A finding was incorporated in the judgment that the defense had been "openly and avowedly conducted" by the manufacturer of the article distributed by defendant. Plaintiff objected that the finding "on its face would be a valid estoppel" in case plaintiff later wished to sue the manufacturer in a separate suit. Held, that plaintiff was entitled to have the finding deleted from the judgment since the finding was not necessary to a disposition of the issues between plaintiff and defendant.

Michigan Law Review

The scope of the treaty-making power, and the considerations that govern in determining when a treaty is self-executing and when it requires subsequent legislation to make its terms effective, received an interesting discussion in a recent case decided in the United States District Court of the District of Maryland.


Curb-Stone Patent Opinions, Dwight B. Cheever Apr 1905

Curb-Stone Patent Opinions, Dwight B. Cheever

Michigan Law Review

Having been asked almost every day for the last nine years for offhand-commonly called curb-stone-opinions on one or more of certain very elementary propositions in Patent Law, it has occurred to me that perhaps a discussion of some of these questions would be of more practical value to the readers of this magazine than a comprehensive discussion of a more elaborate subject.
